Germany actually has a similar approach with the gambling agency.
It actually tries to set rules that protect gamblers (no loans, no advertising, no parallel games, regulated user accounts) and limits the kinds of games available.
Proceeds from gambling don't have to be non-profit, though. So gambling is still lucrative for casinos with a license. Or the states with their state run lottery.
